This is James O'Brien's incredibly powerful response to Boris Johnson defending Dominic Cummings.
The Prime Minister defended senior aide Dominic Cummings in Sunday's press briefing after reports he flouted lockdown rules repeatedly by travelling to Durham from his London home on multiple occasions.
Mr Johnson's statement comes after a number of Conservative MPs came out on Sunday to call for Mr Cummings to either be sacked or to resign.
James O'Brien started by reading two letters; one letter written by Prime Minister Boris Johnson to the public and one letter written in 1982 to the Prime Minister's father, Stanley Johnson, by his university master.
James repeated this sentence "I think he honestly believes it is churlish of us not to regard him as an exception, one who should be free of the network of obligation which binds everyone else."
James said: "Last night the Prime Minister of this country made a fool of every single human being who did what he asked of us.
"He made a mug of every mother, every father, every daughter, every son, every brother, every sister, every nurse, every doctor, every teacher, every paramedic who have done their level best in incredibly trying circumstances to pull together. To prioritise the national interest over personal inconvenience and even misery.
"Boris Johnson stood before me and before you last night and demonstrated categorically that he still believes it is churlish of us not to regard him as an exception, one who should be free of the network of obligation which binds everyone else."
